Two of my students had the opportunity to present their group's final studio recommendations at Scarborough Civic Centre this afternoon to an audience that included @CllrJamaalMyers and his staff, City Planning staff, and the leadership of Grace Reform Church. #TOpoli

@BlairScorgie @cityoftoronto @PaulaFletcherTO @TrusteeSara The fact that the speed limits in school zones have not all been lowered to 30km shows that #vizionzero is a nice talking point that isn’t taken seriously in this city.
Can we...just accept that we suck at this? I want to tell you a story that has made me kinda hopeless about Twitter's ability to affect positive things happening, and it starts with this tweet from Hillary Clinton. x.com/hillaryclinton…

I would like to understand why this recently installed courtesy crossing on Larchmont Avenue, south of Queen Street East, has been dismantled. The lights and buttons have been removed. This is a school zone. @311Toronto, @cityoftoronto, @PaulaFletcherTO

@BlairScorgie @cityoftoronto I met Michelle while I was in grad school, don’t think I’d be where I am now had we not crossed paths. She was kind, brilliant, & always reminded me that public joy and public service are not mutually exclusive! We threw a party as proof of concept ❤️🩹 vimeo.com/169939919
Michelle and I bonded over a shared vision of mixed use laneways, and what they could achieve for the @cityoftoronto. We started down a path together, beginning in 2018. I intend to finish it for her. #topoli

I met Michelle Senayah over a decade ago and over that time we worked together to build up @OpenStreetsTO + @lanewayproject. She was a visionary urbanist and transformed Toronto for the better. She's dearly missed by family & friends. (1/2)

Today, 48 planes are scheduled to fly between Montreal and New York City. With proper high-speed rail and pre-clearance protocols, this journey could take less than 3 hours by train. Currently, it takes 11 hours by train. We deserve better.
What is even more amazing about Saturday, Apr. 27? In the 24-hour average, #WIndWaterSolar supplied 83.5% of California's electricity demand This is the largest 24-hour average WWS to date.
Another record falls. For 9.75 hours today (Sat Apr. 27), California #WindWaterSolar supply exceeded demand (previous record was 9.25 hours). Peak today: 148.3%. Even nighttime last night was 50% #WWS. When will naysayers stop pretending 24/7/365 is not possible?
Solar is now being installed faster than any technology in history Cumulative capacity now ~1.4 TW, a tenfold increase in 10 years. May rise to 9 TW in 2031 In 2023, #WindWaterSolar comprised 82% of global electricity capacity additions reneweconomy.com.au/solar-is-now-b… @renew_economy
